Explicit resolution reports before identified causes, performed actions and suggestions. Within each level, matching component labels precede direct query mentions and inherited thread context; successful versus unsuccessful discussion counts, owner confirmations and independent discussion support determine order. This is not a probability of success.

I've read on an American forum that the interval went down to 10k/1 year for this model, with speculation that it was due to the nature of the DFI engine...

These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

6 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Could anyone confirm if the service intervals on the gen 2 Carrera remained at 20k miles/2 years? I've read on an American forum that the interval went down to 10k/1 year for this model, with speculation that it was due to the nature of the DFI engine... Thanks for any help.

POST 2Original post

Mines 20k/2 years...I wasnt aware of the proposed reduction actually!

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

See the second post here where someone (in Australia) says: 'The standard service interval for 997.1 is 2yrs/20k miles, alternating minor/major services For 997.2 it reverts back to 1yr / 10k miles. Perhaps because DI require more servicing?' Interestingly I've just found that the full Autocar road test of the 997.2 PDK Carrera says 'intervals are at 18600 miles or two years'. I guess they were wrong either way, unless the PDK car has different intervals to the manual? Edited by scoobysnacks2 on Wednesday 4th February 19:23

POST 5Original post

I'd not trust anyone that writes 'reverts back'.

POST 6Original post

Mine is a 997.2 C4S PDK and the on-board computer has the car at in at 20k or 2 years. That's also how my local OPC have me scheduled in.
